The Resident Destroyer of Liberal Logic
   Location: PNW | This town is the scene of a devastating shooting at Umpqua Community College. It is only a short drive from where I live, and I go there often to do various errands and UCC is where I generally take any licensure exams. Many friends and family live in the area, go to the college, work at the college, or know somebody who does. There are at least 10 dead and over 20 wounded. Please pray for all involved. |

| My sister in law is from Roseburg, I spent an amazing long 4th of July weekend there when she married my brother. She attended UCC as well. What a sweet, beautiful town.....I am heartbroken for them. It really can happen ANYWHERE. |

Ugh. That is sick. I am stunned (and obviously a little naive) that so many people are applauding and encouraging him. |

     Location: Somewhere between S@% stirrer and Saint | I don't know if it is true but it was ABC and another channel that the guy had people stand up and say what kind of religion they were. Of course Obama wants to change gun laws. How about people living more Christ like and they won't shoot others? |

 A Gopher's Worst Nightmare
Posts: 5094
    Location: Southern Oregon | Many prayers for our small community is VERY needed. I was at work when this happened at our local plywood mill. Luckily the mill went on safety stand down and brought us all into our conference room to tell us the news. They then released us all to go make as many calls as we needed to check on kids, friends and family. I personally went to UCC for several years and a majority of the people I work with have kids going to college there now. We are all kind of in shock and disbelief. Such a horrid incident, several of my close friends were in the library and heard all of this happening. Right now they are investigating a chat room the shooter was on, and disclosed what he was planning on doing today. The sad thing is several of the people on the thread were encouraging him to follow through and never reported it. Many Many Many prayers....we are all still waiting for names of the those who have been injured or deceased as we all know we will probably know several of them personally.  |

To early to state any facts yet. But the NY post has an article on it with witness statements that are vary disturbing if true. |
